IDC names four SDN providers to watch

@IDC, based in Framingham, Mass., defined #SDN as architecture for #datacenter networking, especially relevant as enterprise cloud use grows. The firm said the most important features these SDN providers offer to customers include automated provisioning, programmable network management, better application visibility and direct integration with cloud orchestration platforms -- all key components of intent-based networking. Although the report described four emerging #SDN providers, the names aren't necessarily new in the market. @Apstra, founded in 2014, represents the youngest company, while @BigSwitch, @Plexxi and @Pluribus joined the game as SDN providers in 2010. In particular, IDC cited Apstra's vendor-agnostic operating system for data center networks, in addition to its real-time analytics. With Big Switch Networks, IDC noted the SDN provider's fabric designed to create more flexible and intelligent data center networks. Plexxi's strengths, according to IDC, reside in its Ethernet and IP-based programmable data center fabric that can merge distinct networks into a single fabric for all workloads. Finally, the report said Pluribus Networks supports mission-critical environments with its dynamic architecture that offers scalability for enterprise cloud initiatives.

The four companies named as IDC Innovators are @Apstra, Inc., @Big Switch Networks, Inc., @Plexxi, and @Pluribus Networks. A new IDC Innovators report identifies four technology providers that are considered key emerging vendors in the software-defined networking market Tweet this #SDN, and its evolutionary extension into intent-based networking ( #IBN), represents an architectural approach to datacenter networking in the cloud era. It is defined by an abstracted architectural model that better aligns network infrastructure with the needs of application workloads through automated (thereby faster) provisioning, programmatic network management, pervasive application-oriented visibility and, where needed, direct integration with cloud orchestration platforms. These capabilities can translate into significant operational savings while providing organizations with the means of faster time to business outcomes and revenue realization. "Given the imperative of digital transformation and the need to support cloud-native applications and to deliver cloud-like agility, enterprises are compelled to modernize their datacenter-network architectures and operational models. Fortunately, practical and viable options for datacenter SDN and IBN are available, addressing requirements associated with a broad range of workloads and use cases. This IDC Innovators report profiles four vendors that take varied approaches to addressing the need for datacenter networking in the cloud era," said Brad Casemore, research vice president, Datacenter Networks. Apstra offers a vendor-agnostic datacenter-network operating system and intent-based analytics that provide real-time, continuous closed-loop validation. Big Switch Networks offers a fabric-based SDN solution that is designed to make the datacenter network intelligent, agile, and flexible. Plexxi offers a programmable, workload-driven Ethernet/IP-based datacenter fabric that enables convergence of discrete networks into an intelligent datacenter fabric serving all workloads. Pluribus Networks offers a dynamic, scale-out architecture that enables organizations to build a next-generation private or public cloud that is optimized to support mission-critical environments.

Pluribus Sees Validation in Ericsson Cloud Deployments

@Ericsson ’s recent deal with @Swisscom in launching a #cloud platform for the Swiss telecommunication operator involved network components from @PluribusNetworks. According to @StevenShalita, vice president of marketing and business development at Pluribus, those components are vital to the deployment.

As a quick recap, Ericsson last week made good on a previously announced deal with Swisscom to launch a cloud-based enterprise service. That platform was described as a full-stack cloud deployment that takes advantage of software-defined networking (#SDN) and network functions virtualization ( #NFV).

The platform details included use of Ericsson’s #CloudManager, #CloudExecution Environment, #CloudSDN, #Hyperscale Datacenter System (HDS) 8000, and professional services.

Daniel Staub, head of Swisscom’s Joint Mobile Group, in a statement said that it will target businesses tied to 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT).

“Our first service is now live, servicing the small and medium enterprise market, and we will continue to work closely with Ericsson to onboard other services in the immediate future,” Staub said in a statement.

As part of its architecture (pictured below), Ericsson notes that Pluribus provides the networking component to the HDS 8000 product. Shalita said Pluribus’ Netvisor OS and Adaptive Cloud Fabric architecture are also part of the picture.

$50+ Billion Software-Defined Networking and Network Function Virtualization Market 2017 - Global forecast to 2022

DUBLIN, August 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The " #SoftwareDefinedNetworking and #NetworkFunctionVirtualization Market by Component (Solution (Software (Controller, and Application Software), Physical Appliances), and Service), End-User, and Region - Global forecast to 2022" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering. The Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) market is expected to grow from USD 3.68 Billion in 2017 to USD 54.41 Billion by 2022, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 71.4%. The main driving factors for the Software Defined Networking Market are the increasing evolution and demand in mobility, the increased network complexity and varied traffic pattern, and the surge in demand for cloud service, data center consolidation, and server virtualization. The SDN and NFV is gaining prominence due to the growing technological advancements in networking and data center consolidation. SDN is a ground-breaking networking architecture, which is poised to entirely revolutionize the existing networking and data center infrastructure. The SDN architectural framework is set to redefine the networking infrastructure to meet the growing number of network users consuming a high bandwidth. With a decoupled control plane that can be complimented with various Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based software tools, a lucid improvisation to the traditionally distributed control plane is feasible, enabling an intelligent and efficient network. The controllers provide a centralized interface to manage the complete network, whereas the application software enables the service providers to perform various functions, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), Network Address Translation (NAT), load balancing, and security, at the service edge itself. It acts as a bridge between the physical infrastructure and software solutions.
